Why is it so easy for narcissists to get over relationship?..even long term??


Question: my ex boyfriend and i broke up a little while ago but the next day even, he acted as if he was already over it and over me...we were together for two years and keep in mind he has ADD ADHD is and is on antidepressants (some people think that he may be bipolar)...upon talking to him a few months ago..i told him he really changed..and my tone of voice made it obvious that i didnt mean it in a good way..only he was like oh i know ive changed for the better and went on talking about how wonderful he is..although, ive heard within the past month that he got a speeding ticket for going 130 and might lose his liscence..he got a dui, he drinks every day and night, and he is into cocaine..of course i want nothing to do w/ him and id never be with him again, but i dont understand why for the past 5 months(how long weve been broken up) he acts as if he has some wonderful life and that he is always happy and over me..even tho his life has gone down the toilet..whats his deal?
Answers: You have him pegged as a narcissist. I would say that you hit the nail on the head, so to speak. And that is exactly why he is over your relationship. Narcissists care only for themselves; they do not consider other people at all. Everything goes into making themselves look good.

His deal is that he is a narcissist - ONLY into himself.

Turn your back on him and don't think about him again.
Narcissistic people only care for themselves and their own image. He may also be experiencing delusions. Some bipolar people, or people using drugs don't realize the difference between reality and fantasy.
He never had feelings for you anyway, so he could honestly care less what you say, think, or do. A narcissist loves themself more than anyone.
There really is no problem, just a story you tell about how reality needs to be something it's not.
